ENTREPRENERSHIP SUCCESS - WHAT IT TAKES

 

1. FIND YOU PASSION

A successful entrpreneur understands that money isn't the purpose or the goal. Instead, it's about passion. New entrepreneur are to discover their passion - passion will inspire you to work through the hurdles that come your way. Love for your enterprise will give you the purpose and motivation to continue moving forward.

 2. CULTIVATE RELATIONSHIPS

No entrepreneur can do it alone. Getting to know people before you need them is the mantra. If a gap in knowledge or experience hinders you from developing that relationship, find a way to bridge that gap.

 3. DEVELOP A GROWTH MINDSET  

The most critical skill you can develop is a growth mindset. A growth mindetset is the idea that one's most basic abilities can be developed through dedication and hard work and a love of learning.

 4. ELEVATE YOUR RESILIENCE  

There are two things few entrepreneurs can avoid: rejection and failure.

      

Cultivating resilience to handle those moments. After all, rejection is everywhere, even for a child at a playground. For entrepreneurs, the stakes are far more signaficant. Potentially life-changing, even. However, if you achieve resilience, you're more likely to withstand rejection and failure without giving up.

 5. BECOME A SELF-ADVOCATE  

All entrepreneurs are to advocate for themselves. When negotiating, develop the mindset of a victor, not the victim. The problem is that we tend to undersell ourselves. It's an issue often born out of the fear that we will not be perceived as worthy of the cost. Successful entrepreneurs must know their worth and act with that self-worth in mind.
